I found they added a little too much gore than was necessary. Seemed like there were only two kinds of soldiers in the movie: those who did not get shot and those who got shot and died, usually with dramatic things like heads popping off, legs falling off, or the German officer marching around while on fire.

During the final zoom out, you saw the dozens on dozens on dozens of German dead from the one immobilized tank. Seemed pretty hokey to me. The Germans did not get as far as they did in the war dumping 3 hundred soldiers onto one immobilized tank. Nor do you peer into a tank to see whats going on. You open the hatch just enough to drop in a grenade. After that has gone off, you can peer in.

The popcorn however was beyond reproach.
